Runs reasonably cool, just keep it well ventilated so you don't fry the poor thing.

There are always failures in any series of hard drives and I would prefer not to deal with issues like this, but at least with a reputable brand like there is good warranty support. By that time the drive had apparently been rebooted enough to work normally again. I submitted an RMA request to Western Digital and received a prompt reply less than 1 bus.

After firmware update the drive was shutting itself down after 10-15 seconds of being plugged in. I posted a review when the 2nd drive started acting up: Strange noises prompted me to run diagnostics and update firmware. Overall Review: The first defective drive was exchanged by Newegg since it had only been a few weeks. The plastic casing feels a little cheap compared to some of the nicer (and more expensive) models like the MyBook Studio but at this price, I don't expect premium aesthetic design - it's about the same as my 2 year old MyBook Mac so at least the quality is consistent. The 2nd drive had a brief issue after a firmware update but it resolved itself. It uses a standard USB 3.0 micro port so if you misplace the supplied cord you can use a common micro USB cord from your phone in a pinch and replacement 3.0 cables are easy to buy online.Ĭons: The first item wasn't quite DOA, but it had some unrecoverable errors during my initial 1.2 TB backup. I use this drive for nightly backups and it sits quietly, scooping up all the data I need it to. I get consistent large-file transfers of about 125 MB/s. Gave 4 eggs for the cons though I suppose it would have been more expensive had it fixed those issues.

Packaged software that it comes with is good but as I'll be using it for a NAS I have not used it too much. I purchased this for cheaper than it costs for the drive inside. The power plug does not have a power brick in the middle so the plug to the wall is a bit of a brick, not oversized but I'd rather the brick be in the middle of the cord to free up space on the wall outlet. At arms length away you will not be able to notice that it's on except for the light which is a nice soft white. It is whisper quiet because of the good enclosure design. The drive inside is WD WD30EZRX which spins at only 5400 RPM but only takes up 6W of power on load which is partly why no fan is needed. At best I can feel a slight warms when touching the enclosure or feeling the vents for heat. A different enclosure I have without a fan the drive gets so hot I fear it might damage it, this is not the case with this.
Even though it doesn't have a fan it doesn't get too hot.

I've loaded it up about half full and so far everything is working very well. Overall Review: I've only had this for less than a week but so far I'm quite happy with my purchase. Price can be cheaper than buying the drive inside by itself
